Nyeh. So I was just wandering around the 'Net, when I came across this little gem of a quiz. Now, I'm orignally from the MidWest, but moved to Seattle about 11 years ago. I don't think I have much of an accent, though I do tend to lapse into somewhat of a Southern accent when I'm talking to customers at my job or with my friends. Sometimes I'll even drop into a British accent, though not conciously. Yes, I'm weird, I don't deny it. I just thought I'd have a different result than this one. Just goes to show, yeah?
What American accent do you have?
Your Result: The West
Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.
